    Annual monorail emergency drill tomorrow

    If the spot is where I'm thinking, it's a wooded spot about halfway between TTC & EPCOT. The spot has a clump of trees around it, and it is just before the MK toll plaza. If you look carefully, you can see an emergency staircase that allows for two monorails. Though it could be just about...

    Funny disaster?

    Does getting attacked by a mother hen at fort wilderness count? On my first trip to ever to WDW (10/82) my family was waiting for our reservations for Hop-Dee-Doo and my older sister were in a chicken pen, she handed me a baby chick & the mother hen attacked me. You can imagine how frieghtened...

    Giordano's Pizza

    IF you are talking about the Italian place off 535 next to the Steak N' Shake then unfortunately it has closed and is now a Mexican place. Sorry to bring the bad news, but I was there just yesterday and I kinda thought something was odd about the missing Italian place.

    Ariel & Hercules are Related

    Confuddled Wow, this thread brought some interesting light on several Disney Characters, then went way out there w/ the whole cousins thing and completely lost me. I'm in agreement w/ others as far as how family works, it's cousins, aunts, uncles and parents/grand-parents/great-grand-parents...

    Why are there so many people who don't like Epcot??

    I don't know how anyone can HATE Epcot. I know I personally Love Epcot, even though some of the changes to it haven't been great. Like many, I miss alot of the good edu-tainment of the original E.P.C.O.T. Center, but the greatness of Epcot will never change, an Eternal World's Fair. And...

    Test Track Ride Vehicles

    Like I said, it was wild seeing the thing on the road in the middle of the day. Though I'm sure it happens more often then I realize even though I'm always driving on property, it was a first for me. Just one more reason I enjoy living where I do.

    Test Track Ride Vehicles

    I believe you that the real ride cars aren't driveable, but it sure was odd to see what looked like one driving on the road. Though, why would they keep it over by MK and not there at EPCOT?

    Test Track Ride Vehicles

    Here's a link, http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3085/93/640/TestTrackRideVehicle.jpg to the actual picture I took w/ my camera phone. As far as driving, it looks like there is a spot for a steering wheel and pedals in the front row, center seat. The wheel looked like one from an old Ford...

    Test Track Ride Vehicles

    Not sure if anyone knows this, apparently the Test Track cars are actual working cars. I was driving through property today and noticed a Test Track car being followed by a Disney Security van. Talk about wild, when I passed the car I noticed a few things, there is a spot in the first row...

    Everest Question

    You've got a fifty-fifty chance of it being open to park guests. I got the lucky chance to ride it a few days ago (my mom works @ DAK) and it was a blast. Though I too am hopeful it's open at least by mid Feb, as my B-Day is at the end of the month, I'd like to ride it on that day.

    How Long Does It Take You To Get To Disney World.

    If I walk to Magic Kingdom's gate, it takes about 30mins. If I drive, it takes a few minutes. One benefit of living directly behind the Magic Kingdom.:D

    Raglan Road Open

    Here's a poor quality shot I managed to take w/ my cell phone, http://photoalbums.wdwmagic.com/showphoto.php?photo=16422&cat=500 I'll try to get some better shots w/ a real camera as soon as I can.

    Raglan Road Open

    Just got back from Downtown Disney and while there, noticed that Raglan Road was opened for business. I'm sure they are doing soft openings to get ready for the official Grand Opening on the 21st. Not sure about others, but I looking forward to visiting this new place at Pleasure Island, once...

    Floridian Thunder Storms??

    There's really no thunderstorms in March/April. The days are mostly nice, though March weather is a little bit more dreary then April. Also, that time of year is when Easter is, and let me say this, crowds are terrible during easter.

    Tired of Disney

    Epcot82guy, you nailed one of the main reasons I never tire of Disney. Seeing kids get excited to see characters, buildings and everything Disney has going on. Heck, I just drove my niece and nephew on property and my niece was all excited cause it meant that she'd be able to see Mickey Mouse...

    Just a very few of our magical moments!

    It's always good to hear about positive and happy things when it seems everyone wants to talk about negatives. After reading this, i had to clean my contacts, something seemed to get in them and cause my eyes to water. Again, I'm happy to hear your very positive experiences.

    movie about Walt?

    There is a DVD out called "Walt: The Man Behind the Myth." It's a documentary about his life and all. If you're on disney property, you can actually buy this dvd at many of the stores that sell dvd's, otherwise, do a google search and you can find lots of sites selling it.

    cutest thing your child or someone else's said in disney

    At AK a few years ago, my family and I went on Kali, my then 5yr old niece got on kicking and screaming, she wasn't big on rides at the time. During the ride, my nephew and I got totally drenched and she got a small drop of water on her shirt and said the following in a upset little girl way...

    AKL too far?

    I stayed @ AKL two years ago, and the bus service is, as everyone else has said, excellent. I think the longest transit time was about 15mins. AKL is by far my favorite resort and here's why, it's very peaceful. Being able to go outside and see all the animals in a quite setting, amazing. Even...
